California Councilman Accused of Sexual Battery

A Santa Ana City Council member accused of sexual battery and other charges was described Tuesday as a "well-connected" man who used his management power to prey on female employees. More details were released Tuesday morning when the Orange County District Attorney outlined charges against Carlos Bustamante, the former administration manager for the Orange County Public Works Department who was arrested on his way to a city council meeting Monday. "He had a type," said OC District Attorney Tony Rackauckas. "County employees who were subordinate to the defendant and women who were emotionally vulnerable."
